Reverse

Translation

Δοροθέου or Θεοδώρου. Αἀρόν

(Token of) Dorotheos or Theodore and Aaron.

Commentary

It is very difficult to date this token, and our reading is very provisional. We have indicated a thirteenth-century date on the basis of the theta on the obverse, but this carries only limited weight. Both sides contain four letters in the formation of a cruciform, though they are unconnected and hence not monograms. Reading both sides counter-clockwise from the left, the obverse reads Dorotheos, the reverse Aaron. The obverse could also be read as Θεοδώρου.
